Love that blooms never fades|✔️

28• Ishq

Next morning ::

Preeta was shown climbing the stairs of a temple, which was almost vacant and not many people were there.

"Hey bhagwan ji! Kya ho rha h ye mere saath? Kyu ho rha h aisa?" She said joining her hands in front of the idol, her eyes were void of any emotion, yet her face expressed grief.

"M..m kaise Karan ki taraf aise attract ho rhi hu? Kyu ho rhi hu? M nhi hona chahti... Par jab wo aas paas hota h na, tab m khud ko rok bhi nhi pati.. aisa kyu ho rha h! Nhi hona chahiye aisa" preeta said.

"Mujhe nhi pta pyaar kya hota h? Pyaar kaise hota h? Aur na hi mujhe ye pta h ki Karan ke liye meri feelings pyaar h ya dosti, m kuch identify nhi krna chahti par..." Preeta said, looking at the idol with confusion written all over her face.

She knew, she was fighting an internal battle, b/w her mind and her heart. She knew who will win, and she also knew who had the power to take over her senses.

She was a mess.

"Agar ye feelings pyaar h to ye pyaar galat h! Ye mohabbat galat h, iska anjaam galat hoga. Ye mohabbat tabahi layegi! Ye mohabbat nhi khilni chahiye! This love should never bloom!" Preeta said determinedly.

"Jhooth kahu bhi to kisse kahu? Aap to sab jante h na! M bhi janti hu! Janti hu ye feelings kya h! Par m inhe badhne nhi dena chahti, jaha h wahi rokna chahti hu par...par ye h ki rukne ka naam nhi le rhi. M kya karu mujhe kuch smjh nhi aa rha h " preeta said. Her eyes held so many emotions. Love, anxiety, confusion and regret.

"Pyaar ho gya h tumhe preeta! U are in love with Karan!" Preeta turned and found manik and nandini standing there. Wide smiles on their faces.

"Tum dono yaha?" Preeta asked.

"Ha! Bhagwan ji ki Pooja krne aaye the! But yaha to Prem ki pooja ka hissa ban baithe" nandini said chuckling.

"Nhi Aisa nhi h!" Preeta said, looking down.

Manik nandini looked at each other and smiled. They went towards her. Manik held preeta through shoulders and made her look at him.

"Preeta! Karan bahut acha insaan h! Kabhi tumhe hurt nhi karega! Fir kyu bhaag rhi ho usse" manik asked softly. Preeta, who was holding her tears from long back, finally couldn't stop them and her tears started flowing.

"Preetaa! Tu fir rone lagi! Karan sahi naam se bulata h tuje, babydoll! Bilkul babies ki tarah h tu! Baat baat pe rone lgti h" Nandini said, side hugging her and preeta cried more leaning on her shoulder.

"Problem kya h preeta?" Manik asked. Preeta looked at him, nandini wiped her tears and assured her to tell. Preeta nodded.

"Actually baat ye h ki Karan mujhse nhi Ayesha se pyaar krta h! Aur agar usse ye pta chal gya ki m usse pyaar krti hu to wo wapas se guilt m chala jayega! Kyuki usse lagega ki m pyaar deserve krti hu but wo mujhse pyaar nhi kr paa rha. Isliye wo Wapas pehle jaisa ban jayega! M aisa nhi hone de skti. Sab kuch kitna acha chal rha h. I can't be the one to ruin this. Mera pyaar sab barbaad kar dega! Sab kuch!" Preeta said. Manik and nandini looked at her with sadness.

"Aisa nhi h preeta! Aur kisne kaha ki insaan ko dobara pyaar nhi ho skta. Tu hi kehti h na ki insaan ko pyaar 2000 baar ho skta h." Nandini said.

"Pyaar dobara ho skta h. Sacha pyaar nhi ho skta nandini. Aur karan ko already ho chuka h." Preeta said.

"Aur tumhe kaise pta ki Karan Ayesha se sacha pyaar krta h? Ho skta h ki wo bs uska attraction ho! " Manik said. Nandini gave him a flying kiss while preeta was lost in deep thoughts.
